The position of the displayed CAP message depends on the severity of the alert.

Noticeable messages with “Extreme” and “Severe” headers will appear on the

screen and cover up any other content together with an audio alert siren (in case of

an Extreme level alert). Messages with lower levels of severity will appear as text

crawler along the bottom of the image. When an alert is activated, the system (via

P3K) outputs messages according to the activation mode type (see Section 12.4).

The Expiration Date field of the CAP XML file determines when the message will

expire. Note that you can remove the message sooner by pressing/clicking any of the

buttons on the VP-770 (front panel or remote control buttons, as well as via the Web

page or protocol commands).

To setup and activate the alert system on the VP-770:
